Description

Early in the film, the main character finds refuge with several other lost children in a train station. During the night, men come and begin to chase and capture some of them. The main character successfully escapes, but not before passing a policeman, who seems to know what is happening and yet does nothing. It is strongly implied that these children are most likely being sold into human trafficking. The main character eventually meets a woman who welcomes him into her home with seemingly helpful intentions, promising to help him find his family. However, she invites a man over the next day: he lies next to the main character on a bed and then proceeds to examine his body, feeling his arms and legs. He then tells the woman that the main character is "exactly what they're looking for", possibly implying that they mean to sell him into human trafficking. The main character, however, escapes after suspecting that the two adults have ill intentions. The main character is eventually placed into an orphanage. There, an older boy, who was seen in a distressed state earlier in the film, is woken up during the night and given to an adult man by some orphanage employees. They say that the man should "bring him back before morning". The boy tries to fight, shouting loudly, but the man stops him by placing his hands on the boy's face and implies that they have done this before. The main character, who has been adopted by an Australian couple, is introduced to his new brother, the couple's second adoption. Though the scenes are brief, the new child's behaviors are very similar to those of the boy at the orphanage. It can be assumed that this child had similar traumatic experiences to the boy from the orphanage.
